Detached house for sale in Pardon Hill Barns, Prescott, Gotherington, Cheltenham GL52

Detached barn conversion home with stunning countryside views

Description
The Spindles, created by the current owners 28 years ago, is one of two barns converted beside the historic Dead Oak in Prescott. The story is that King John handed pardons out beneath this tree, giving name to this hamlet and also John Wesley preached under it at the start of the Methodist movement, hence its alternative name of The Wesley Oak.

Constructed in Cotswold stone under a slate roof, the property offers spacious accommodation set out in a split level design over two and a half floors to take advantage of the lovely views to the rear.

The sitting room lies to the rear of the property with large picture window overlooking the gardens and with views towards Dixton Hill, a fitted woodburner and heavy beam over. Steps lead up to the Dining Room/Snug with parquet flooring, exposed stone walling and double height windows with doors either side, leading to the outside. Beyond is the fitted kitchen with dual aspect and stable door to the garden. Fitted with a range of floor and wall cupboards and appliances including electric hob, two ovens and dishwasher. One bedroom lies on the ground floor, which is of a good size with fitted wardrobes, a door to the garden and a lovely view of the same. There is also a shower room and lobby with oak door out to the front at this level.

The principle bedroom lies on the first floor to the rear, again with fitted wardrobes and windows to the side and rear with far reaching views, and an en-suite bathroom with bath and shower. There is a family bathroom, a study or fifth bedroom, and a further two bedrooms across the galleried landing, one with fitted wardrobes.

Outside there is a garage with power and light and ample parking for numerous vehicles.

The gardens are a lovely feature, extending to just under three quarters of an acre. Close to the house are paved terraced areas, with shrub borders, and beyond this large areas of lawn, a fish pond, greenhouse, and beyond this a vegetable garden and timber garden shed. The gardens adjoin pasture land to two sides and enjoy some beautiful views.
